Working Student – Energy Data Operations (m/f/d)

What we are building

At ecoplanet, we're redefining energy for tomorrow. Our mission: turn energy management into the competitive edge every European business relies on to win its market. We're building the operating system for the energy transition — cutting energy costs, improving efficiency, and streamlining operations. Backed by EQT Ventures, HV Capital and more, and built by a team full of top-tier talent.

Why This Role Matters

Everything ecoplanet does depends on clean, complete customer and meter data. You will keep that data in shape, work directly with Germany's 800+ grid operators to close gaps, and automate the repetitive work around it. Small team, real ownership, and what you build takes work off the team immediately.

What You’ll Achieve

• Product operations.
• Support day-to-day operations: customer onboarding, meter data management, and keeping master data clean and available
• Data quality.
• Find and follow up on discrepancies and inconsistencies in customer data, in close collaboration with grid operators
• Data transfer.
• Track open cases with grid operators and metering point operators (MSB), prepare follow-ups and maintain overviews
• Automation.
• Build and improve internal automations and dashboards (n8n, Airtable, Google Sheets), and write Python scripts for data uploads, transformations and checks
• Ad-hoc support.
• Take on requests from Customer Success and small projects with the Operations team

What Sets You Up for Success

Must have

• Currently in a late Bachelor's (4th semester or higher) or a Master's in Informatics, Engineering, Energy, or Business with a technical focus (Wirtschaftsingenieurwesen, TUM-BWL, etc.)

• Strong Excel and/or Google Sheets skills, including complex formulas and templates
• First experience supercharging your work with AI tools like Claude or Codex, going beyond basic research prompts
• A hands-on, independent way of working: you take ownership of tasks and see them through
• Structured, professional communication, including with external partners
